  • Metatranscriptome analysis pipeline

    Hello there!
    I've just started analysing bacterial metatranscriptome Illumina data. I'm a bit confused on the pipeline to follow. That's what I did:
    -I used FastQC to have a general overview of my sequences quality, then I removed the adaptors using the FastX toolkit;
    -I assembled the data using Velvet and then Oases, obtaining a file with transcripts.
    Now I'm not sure about how going on... I thought to use BLAST for annotation and then mapping the files from each sample individually to the assembled transcriptome using BWA... But then I don't know how proceed... I'd like to have something like this:
    GeneID SampleID1 SampleID2 .......

    gene1 %abundance %abund
    gene2 %abund %abund
    ....
    Then use this table to build some of those awesome plots like heatmaps...
    Is there a software that produce an output like this?? Then, does anyone have comments/suggestions on the workflow I used?
    Thanks a lot

    You should read the tutorials in the khmer documentation, and then make use of the khmer scripts.

    Briefly, you do your read trimming and adapter removal, then you perform digital normalisation to reduce the redundancy in your read set, then you partition the de-brujn graph to separate out different organisms, and then you do the assembly.

      Understanding Genetic Influence on Infectious Disease
      by seqadmin




      During the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists observed that while some individuals experienced severe illness when infected with SARS-CoV-2, others were barely affected. These disparities left researchers and clinicians wondering what causes the wide variations in response to viral infections and what role genetics plays.

      Jean-Laurent Casanova, M.D., Ph.D., Professor at Rockefeller University, is a leading expert in this crossover between genetics and infectious...

      Addressing Off-Target Effects in CRISPR Technologies
      by seqadmin






      The first FDA-approved CRISPR-based therapy marked the transition of therapeutic gene editing from a dream to reality1. CRISPR technologies have streamlined gene editing, and CRISPR screens have become an important approach for identifying genes involved in disease processes2. This technique introduces targeted mutations across numerous genes, enabling large-scale identification of gene functions, interactions, and pathways3. Identifying the full range...
